Context Based Philosophy - The goal of this methodology is to develop a philosophy that is not based on negatives. When centering our discussion on truth the evaluation of words, issues, ideas are primarily normative. That means once some idea is brought forward it is evaluated first by normative value considerations. Then the problem is that a lot of things cannot be evaluated for their usefulness because they are questioned on value before we know what they are, before we understand the meaning. So we never even understand the meaning. But, also, the normative judgement is actually a cover for personal bias. The approach then, also, us used to hide extreme biases, since to criticize such bias activity also violates the normative issues. This is why we need to base our inquiry on meaning rather than truth.
